I like that it comes packed with roster cards, even if they are a tease considering all you get in the box is another god damned human team (come on, GW) and a Skaven team which most Blitz Bowlers likely already have. You can kick downed players now, like Nuffle intended, but you can also be called out for it. Despite taking away the team balls (which my son in particular loved) and benching the madness of the Get On With It rule’s multiball mosh, it’s equipped with tweaks that I appreciate - especially some changes to the math that make passing much more viable (Wood Elves out here saying “thank you”) and other game functions. This is hardly an ultimate edition at all, it’s really more of a revision and almost a relaunch, in a sense. I often joke how GW doesn’t support one of its best board games ever, but here we are with a third box set in release so *shrug*.īut here’s the problem.

It’s slick, smooth, extremely fun to play, and it is absolutely loaded with all of the stuff you want from the elderly game but with all of its excessive bullshit trimmed away. Quite frankly and without apology, this game buries old man Blood Bowl in the paydirt. The first of the new lot is a so-called “Ultimate Edition” of Blitz Bowl, which is to my mind the best sports game I’ve ever played. It’s fortunate that somebody over there listened and saw what made Hewitt’s work great. Hewitt brought to GW was a much stronger board game design sensibility that quite frankly the company hadn’t seen since the days of Hand and Halliwell. Indeed, many of these titles are built on the work that the great, uncredited James Hewitt did during his stint during GW’s grand renaissance period that kicked off with the outstanding Betrayal at Calth and lasted for a few solid years before he left the company.

I’ve traditionally been quite fond of some of these entry-level titles, which tend to exceed the loss-leader expectations you might understandably have. Games Workshop is back at Barnes & Noble (and some hobby retailers, at least in the US) with some new entry-level games designed to process you into their never-ending churn of polystyrene pulchritude. Games Workshop returns to mainstream retail to make another play for your souls.
